My wife and I are both a little under the weather, so we did something simple tonight.

Found these...

...and these...

...in Wally World earlier.

I took a recommendation off the package and added Cheddar Cheese to the Potatoes while they were on the grill, and then added Sour Cream and Bacon before serving them.

The hot dog was topped with some Mustard, Onions and Sauerkraut. This is most definitely my new favorite hot dog. I will be buying more of these in the future...they had an outstanding beef flavor. The potatoes weren't half bad either!! Surprising, because I wasn't expecting much. They weren't "gourmet" by any means, but they definitely hit the spot. Almost like a quick loaded baked potato, with a great crispiness.

beercuer, have you ever tried this particular hot dog? If so, what did you think?

Wow! Them puppies look delicioux, Dyal! I also like the way you dressed up and transformed your taters. You sure took that meal up a notch. I regard Nathan's as a top quality dog, except for their natural casing variety. (I can't figure that one). They just don't taste so processed as some other varieties. However, their Angus line is a new line on me. By the looks of yours, they definitely look worth investigating!

Grif, I didn't see any deer this weekend, but it's always fun to go out there and be one with nature, while observing the other wildlife. Very relaxing for me.

Brad, you wouldn't get the same sort of results from a sliced potato. I've grilled potato planks before, and these had a very different texture. They are processed in a way so that they end up with a crispy texture on the outside with a "french fry-like" texture on the inside. They were pretty decent.

Hmm you can't have been feeling too bad if you cooked up 7 hot dogs for the two of you, plus all those taters.

Personally I've never gotten what people see in Nathan's, but I plan to try these out when they show up in the stores. I'm always willing to be proven wrong. The Ore-Ida Grilling Potatoes have been in stores around here since the beginning of September. I'd been thinking of trying them, thanks for taking one for the team. Now I will definitely give then a shot.

I also find it sadly ironic that you go deer hunting and want to find deer & don't and I have 2-3 deer who regularly frolic in my yard, eat my plants and knock over my trash. They are pretty and all but I'd definitely like them to play elsewhere.
